Oley Oota — Restaurant in Karnataka

🌟 Authentic Nati-Style Feast! 🌟 If you're a fan of bold flavors and rustic Karnataka-style cooking, this place is a must-visit! I recently had the pleasure of dining here and was blown away by the quality and taste of the food.

🔥 What I Loved:

Nati Koli Saaru (Country Chicken Curry): Rich, spicy, and deeply flavorful—just like home-cooked village-style curry.

Bamboo Biryani: A unique twist on biryani, slow-cooked inside bamboo for an earthy aroma and melt-in-the-mouth texture. Absolutely worth trying!

Donne Biryani: Classic Nati-style biryani served in a leaf bowl—fragrant, spicy, and packed with tender pieces of meat.

Kebabs: Juicy, perfectly spiced, and grilled to perfection. The mutton kebabs in particular were a highlight.

Ragi Mudde & Mutton Curry Combo: A traditional combo that delivered on both authenticity and flavor.

👨‍🍳 The staff is friendly, service is quick, and the ambience gives you a very local, down-to-earth dining experience.

Whether you're a local craving traditional fare or a visitor wanting to experience Karnataka’s culinary richness, this spot delivers in every bite. Highly recommended for meat lovers and Nati food...

Location: This is a highway restaurant you will find on your way back from Hassan to Bangalore (Note: You can still cross the road and enjoy on the opposite direction).

Toilet:  Considering it to be a highway restaurant, I give a lot of preference to the restroom.  The restrooms were very dirty and unhygienic.  I have given the same feedback to the restaurant staff during my visit.

Ambience:  It is a decent and clean restaurant space.  Good open parking where you can find shelter of the trees to park your car.  You feel welcomed when you enter the restaurant space. Food:  Note, this is a delighter for non-vegetarians and limited options for vegetarians. We ordered Nati koli curry meals, Kheema curry meals and Mutton curry meals for the 3 of us.  Expect the Kheema curry meals the others were not good as the meat was very hard and chewy.  The Ragi mudde (Ragi balls) was very good.  Hence my suggestion will be to enjoy Ragi mudde, rice and Kheema unless you like eating chewy and hard meat.

Service:  It was good and nothing to...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Oley Oota, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! One of the highlights was their generous offer of free Payasam. This delicious, creamy dessert was the perfect way to end the meal on a sweet note.

But the star of the show was definitely the biryani. The biryani was simply ultimate – rich in flavor, with perfectly cooked, aromatic rice and tender pieces of meat. Every bite was a burst of spices and herbs that transported me to food heaven.

The ambiance of the restaurant was warm and welcoming, and the staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, making the entire dining experience memorable.

Overall, Oley Oota offers a delightful culinary journey that I highly recommend to anyone looking to enjoy authentic and delicious Indian cuisine. Don't miss out on their complimentary Payasam and the...
